Called to teach : the vocation of the Presbyterian educator

Presbyterian educators Duncan Ferguson and William Weston argue that the calling to teach in higher education is distinctively Reformed and a primary mission of the Presbyterian church. This collection of essays first lays the biblical, theological, and historical foundations for this calling, then explores how it is lived out today in educational institutions--church-related as well as secular. Concluding that today's church must have the nurture of the teacher as a central part of its mission, Called to Teach will be a welcomed resource for all those who have the vocation of teaching
